The Earth, our blue planet, our cradle, our home, our grave.

More than a celestial body, the Earth was a spiritual entity to ancient cultures. A sacred planet where manifestations of both a physical and spiritual nature can be recognized, under the same laws of heaven, and in accordance with the universe.

A planet in the solar system that does not travel alone, but in the company of its small Moon. Its commanding beauty can be evident to all, in space and on its surface; everything about it is stunning.

The Moon's cycles around the Earth are described in full detail by Ancestral Astronomy, explained step-by-step or at any specific point in space and time.

Ancestral Astronomy offers entirely different astronomical perspectives and calculation techniques from those used today, providing a highly developed astronomical knowledge that allows us to follow the entire mechanics of Planet Earth's journey, along with the Moon and the Sun, across the universe.

Drawing of a hand, by Joana Burnay.
If a wise astronomer of antiquity returned to Earth, it would not be surprising if conversation would not flow easily with a modern astronomer, even though both are experts in Astronomy.

There is still a scientific void separating Ancestral Astronomy from Modern Astronomy, making them seem irreconcilable. However, what I have concluded over these years of studying Calendars and ancestral astronomy is that these two fields are simply two different ways of looking at the sky—both relevant and scientific.
